1948 Map of San Quentin

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The waters of San Pablo Strait and San Francisco Bay define this 1948 survey, showcasing a landscape of naval installations and vital ferry crossings. On the western shore, the State Penitentiary sits at Pt San Quentin, while the southern tip of the Tiburon Peninsula is anchored by the Tiburon Naval Net Depot and the neighboring settlements of Belvedere and Tiburon. This era precedes the modern bridge, relying instead on the Richmond-San Rafael Ferry to connect the Marin and Contra Costa coastlines.
